I see something falling down
It was in the air
Now it's in your hair
I've got you all mapped out
You're the kind of person I can do without
You want me to take your side
But you don't have the time to bide
Now the birds have flown away
They left you here with more words to say
You're in the wind and in the air
You're everywhere
You're on my back and in my face
Your profundity will clear this place
No time is running out
For the ruling class of the empty shout
So if you want me to take your side
Resist the temptation to speak your mind
You're in the wind and in the air
You're everywhere
You're in my back and in my face
Your profundity will clear this place
Now that I've turned every conceivable cheek
Do I have to admit it makes me sorry and weak?
You're in the wind and in the air
You're anywhere
You're on my back and in my face
Your profundity won't leave a trace
Now that I've turned every conceivable cheek
Do I have to admit it makes me sore and weak?
And I am down on every possible knee
How can it be so hard for anyone to see?
Someday we're through
And I will take my arm off you
But for now it's time to settle the score
It was in the air
Now it's in your hair
I've got you all mapped out
You're the kind of person I can do without
You want me to take your side
But you don't have the time to bide
Now the birds have flown away
They left you here with more words to say
You're in the wind and in the air
You're everywhere
You're on my back and in my face
Your profundity will clear this place
No time is running out
For the ruling class of the empty shout
So if you want me to take your side
Resist the temptation to speak your mind
You're in the wind and in the air
You're everywhere
You're in my back and in my face
Your profundity will clear this place
Now that I've turned every conceivable cheek
Do I have to admit it makes me sorry and weak?
You're in the wind and in the air
You're anywhere
You're on my back and in my face
Your profundity won't leave a trace
Now that I've turned every conceivable cheek
